Windows Store Game Create Shortcut?

[Rowan88]

Hi,

I have Gears of War 4 purchased from the Windows Store but I accidentally deleted the shortcut on the desktop. Does anyone know how I can create a shortcut to my desktop again because currently I need to go into the Windows Store, Search Game, Then click on it and hit PLAY.

I couldn't see a way of doing it and most google searches never helped

Thanks

The only game I have on windows store is the free Forza Apex, but it does appear in my start menu and dragging it across to the desktop creates a shortcut.

Windows store, UWPs for games and the whole way its managed it shambolic.

When I type "Gears of war" into the start menu the only one that comes up is Ultimate Edition which I do not own. In my Storage HDD I do have a 113GB which is called Windows Apps but inside the folders there is nothing relating to an .exe file.
